Reading feeds the soul, writing nourishes it!

Listen to your inner self, it knows you best.

Only a mediocre person is always at his best.

To write good poems is the secret of brevity.

If the novel is dead, I'm a necrophiliac.

I don't write stories, I write characters.

Better a good journalist than a poor assassin.

If Pavlov tested his cat he would have failed.

Writers are the exorcists of their own demons.

We need writers who fear nothing. ("Our Goal")

To write simply is as difficult as to be good.

I get angry about things, then go on and work.

No tears in the writer, no tears in the reade

A novel is a mirror walking along a main road.

...(W)here there's drama, there's crap.
